    Do I need a TMobile phone to acitvate my Galaxy Watch? (Sprint User)

    I carry a Galaxy S-9 provide by work that is on Verizon. My family is all on T-Mobile so I used my daughters Note 5 to activate. I still had to do it at a T Mobile store. The 2 store Reps were nice but not trained up on the Galaxy Watch. We eventually got it activated. There are a few...

    Galaxy watch Battery life

    To give perspective to everyone you have to detail your settings and typical usage. We all use and setup the watch differently. I have the 46mm LTE (TMobile) Version. I get a little over 2 days usage. My average drain is about 1.7% per hour. That's the average over 2 days. Typically put on...

    Would anyone know when the AW 2.0 will arrive at the LG Urbane 2 edition?

    I have to agree, my LGU2 has been great, but waiting this long on the 2.0 update after it was one of the test platforms is unacceptable. I also have the Gear S3 Frontier and it is now my daily driver. Samsung Pay with the MST technology is great. At many retailers they say oh that wont...

    Fossil AW 2.0 rolling out now

    Fossil is rolling out their AW 2.0 to all their Q watches today. Good for those owners. Really disappointed with LG, are they really going to slow down roll out in hopes of us buying their new watches.

    Running with Gear S3. How accurate?

    I have taken it on a few runs. I have the T-Mobile LTE version. I leave my phone at home when I run. The GPS locks on fairly quickly and is very accurate. I have compared it with my Garmin Vivosmart HR+ and it is always within 0.01 miles of what the Garmin says. The run tracks look...

    OK my watch Cellular connection works but I have an issue.

    One other question is which Carrier are you using? I tried an inexpensive prepaid plan (H2O) and could get voice and text when I was in stand alone, but could not get data. I have it on T-Mobile now and have full connectivity when I am in stand alone.

    Tmobile Call forwarding questions

    Yes you can change the time: Change the call forwarding delay time (5-30 seconds). For example, dialing **61*18056377249**12# would be for a 12-second delay. I think you can also call T-Mobile support and they can change it for you. Here is a link to a T-Mobile page with all their code...

    T-Mobile nano Sim

    I tried an H2O prepaid sim. It worked for cell and text but not data. You need to get into the settings to change the APN settings on the watch to make data work, and you currently can not access that on the watch. I now have it on T-Mobile as an extra phone line ($10 per month). The...

    Where to buy LG urbane 2nd edition out right with no plan?

    Cell reception does have a lot to do with battery drain when you have it on. The area I live in has very good coverage for T-Mobile (sim I use). I have traveled to other areas and seen my battery drain double or triple depending on coverage. For running I don't really rely on the watch. I...

    Where to buy LG urbane 2nd edition out right with no plan?

    On the watch I leave Cellular in Automatic. I don't have a program that can change the state of settings on the watch itself. AutoMagic controls most things on Android Phones. I am not seeing a huge battery drain with cellular in automatic. I drain about 3%-3.5% per hour with cellular...

    Where to buy LG urbane 2nd edition out right with no plan?

    I bought mine at an ATT Corporate store. Told them it was a gift. I then added it to my T-Mobile plan as a separate line ($10 month) with unlimited call/text & 2GB data. I already have a Gear S2 on a T-Mobile wearable plan. I pay $10 vice $5 but am very happy. I run a lot and also leave my...

    Automatic Call Forwarding: SOLVED

    I also use Automagic. I have created flows for connecting to my car radio and just recently figured out how to automatically turn on call forwarding when I walk away from my phone. I keep my watch's cellular option in the automatic state. I then have 2 Flows (profiles) in Automagic that...
